Serine

moisturising anti-ageing

overview

Serine is an amino acid that plays a crucial role in various biological processes. It is naturally produced by the body and is also found in various food sources. Serine is used in skincare products as a moisturizing agent and may also help improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. However, serine production can diminish somewhat over a person's lifetime. It is also involved in the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential for maintaining skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of wrinkles.

additional info

Serine is also involved in the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential for maintaining skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of wrinkles. Liposomal serine prepared by a reverse-phase evaporation method was then incorporated in the hydrogel. The liposomal serine-incorporated hydrogel (serine level=1%) showed an approximately 1.62~1.77 times greater moisturizing effect on the skin than those of hydrogel, hydrogel with serine (1%), and hydrogel with blank liposome.
